Major concerns persist over spray drift STORY: PAGE 4 Narromine Show nominated for multiple award

By LUKE WILLIAMS NARROMINE Agricultural Show Society has been nominated for the AgShows NSW President’s Innovation Award and Resilience Award.

The Resilience Award comes after a successful 2022 show when the local event was unable to operate in 2020 and 2021.

As committee member Keiley Noble wrote in her submission to the awards, “The Narromine Show has only been able to operate for four out of the last seven years”.

She explained that the committee has been forced to cancel shows in the second half of the last decade because of rain, drought and that the 2020 and 2021 also had to be stopped this time because of COVID restrictions.

“Finally, in 2022, the Narromine Show occurred again.

Our gate numbers, livestock exhibits, and pavilion entries were all incredibly high, and we had our largest crowd for our nighttime entertainment that we had ever seen”.

“Without the resilience of the Narromine Show Society members, our show would not have bounced back in 2022 like it did”.

For the Innovation Award, Mrs Noble wrote about the Narromine Show Ball, which sells out and locals often described it as the “best social event in town”.

Aerobatics on the way!

National Champ’s are coming to Narromine ABOUT 40 of Australia’s most-accomplished and experienced aerobatic pilots, are coming to Narromine later this year, to showcase their highly-coordinated sequences in the friendly skies above the shire.

These daring aerial acrobats will all be here to delight local and visiting fans, at the 2023 Australian National Aerobatic Championships running in October.

National president of the Australian Aerobatic Club, Peter Townsend, said that Narromine’s choice as venue for this prestigious national event, was no lucky fluke.

“Narromine’s Aerodrome is the ideal location, as it has one of the best air-spaces and aerodrome facilities, along with a very accommodating council and Aero Club, and a very supportive community,” Mr Townsend enthused.

“We will have pilots competing in the event, ranging from 17-years-of-age, through to 60-years, who will manoeuvre high-performance aircraft at extreme physical limits,” he added.

The local area is the perfect location for this spectacular show, involving those magnificent men (and women) and their flying machines, Narromine mayor Craig

Davies, said.

“Narromine’s big open skies offer outstanding flying conditions, and the council is thrilled that the Australian Aerobatic Club have chosen Narromine Aerodrome to host the event,” he said.

The Australian Aerobatic Academy is also perfectly-qualified to run this event, Mr Townsend said.

They are a “CASA-approved Part 141 fl ight training organisation” that, he said, are dedicated to providing Syd-

ney with high-quality primary fl ight training, aerobatic training, advanced handling, and adrenaline-charged joy fl ights.

Major concerns persist over spray drift

BY LUKE WILLIAM

SENIOR Narromine farming and environment groups leaders have told the Narromine Star the damage from spray drift has reached acute levels and is getting progressively worse.

It comes as this month, senior representatives from the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) met with members of the Stop Off-Target Spraying group, the Community Overspray Group, and other members of the community in Narromine who say herbicide drift in the shire is getting noticeably worse.

Narromine farmer and natural resource specialist Bruce Maynard has said that herbicide drift that he says has plagued the region for decades is this season is the worst he has seen.

“There are two issues - spray drift which impacts the immediate neighborhood, and passive spray exposures, which sometimes travel tens of kilometres from where they are applied.”

Mr Maynard told the senior representatives and the Narromine Star the “impacts of spray drift visible throughout Narromine and Trangie.”

“Every Autumn, it’s a recurring problem,” he said. “But the situation has been getting progressively worse - we are still waiting to see just how worse it is. This season the defoliation ceased some time ago, but the leaves are still falling off; the overall pattern has been getting considerably worse and impacting more species”.

“If you look just past the saleyards have a look at the death of the cedar trees, they are a very hardy species, and it is clear they are being impacted by herbicide drift.”

He said both defoliation and the appearance of distinct little dots were evidence of the spray drift and could be seen all over the region - particularly in the shire’s peppercorn trees which he says he regards as the “canary in the coalmine.”

Craig Chandler, the Macquarie Valley representative from Cotton Australia, said he agreed with Mr Maynard that the problem with spray drift

has been particularly severe this year.

“We have spoken to the EPA on a number of occasions about this, and they have updated their reporting. But, yes, we are certainly very concerned about spray drift events in the last six months.”

A recent report commissioned by Macquarie Valley Landcare Group, which Mr Maynard is affiliated with, was published in 2021 by the ecologist David Goldney, an adjunct professor at Charles Sturt University in Bathurst.

Goldney said in his opinion, “there is a prima facie case that herbicide drift, particularly in the Autumn period before cotton harvesting, is very likely the causal agent in initiating the widespread dieback of native and non-native vegetation in the Narromine-Trangie area”.

While last year a group of scientists led by Richard Thackway, adjunct associate professor of environmental sciences at ANU, put out a jointly signed statement saying, “The group has widely observed symptoms of chemical drift on non-target vegetation over the past few decades, and the degradation of vegetation does not appear to be occurring from natural causes”.

Mr Chandler from Cotton Australia said he did not believe the current spray drift was coming from within the shire itself.

“We think it comes from the Walgett-Coonamble area. We believe it comes from three main inversion events - one in November, one in January, and one in December and it is spray, but it’s near impossible to tell exactly where this is coming from. However, given the weather patterns, we believe it was based on spraying somewhere out of the region and somewhere north of Narromine”.

Mr Chandler said that he had worked closely with growers in the region to educate them on spray drift and inversion.

He said Cotton Growers Australia is holding its annual general meeting next week, and one of the key issues being discussed is the severe spray drift this year.

Meanwhile, Mr Maynard

said he had been frustrated with a lack of action from the NSW EPA in the past.

“We very naively thought that if we raised with the EPA, we thought we could get action, but this has not been the case,” he said “The EPA needs to better respond to pollution notifications when they are related to bees, water or vegetation.”

A spokesperson from the EPA told the Narromine Star, “The EPA continues to meet with community members and investigate potential impacts from pesticides in the Narromine and Trangie (Macquarie Valley) area. We heard the concerns of those present and discussed our approach to reducing incidents of spray drift, including the ongoing pesticide monitoring and assessment program in the Central West”.

Police officer bitten after Smokemart break-in

By LUKE WILLIAMS A POLICE constable has been injured and taken to hospital after allegedly being bitten while pursuing a man who is believed to have broken into the Narromine Smokemart.

At about 3.30am on Thursday, May 18, officers attended the shopping center on Dandaloo Street, Narromine, following reports the Smokemart was broken into by a man, who had allegedly stolen a number of cigarettes.

Upon arrival, officers saw a man exiting the premises. A struggle between the officers and the man ensued. During the struggle, OC spray was deployed, and the 37-year-old man was arrested before

Getting young rural people driving and driving safely

By LUKE WILLIAMS A NARROMINE native who left private business to start up a not-forprofit partly to help young drivers say Narromine is now considered a disadvantaged community because of its lack of services.

“I grew up in Narromine,” said Tim Birrang from the Birrang Enterprise Development Company.

“I got my learner’s permit in Narromine; I did all my driving lessons in Narromine, there was a little Transport for NSW office in Narromine, I did it all in Narromine.

Now with everything streamlined and attempts at making everything more efficient, it means you have to go to Dubbo to get everything done now”.

This leaves a dilemma, says Mr Birrang, “How are you supposed to get to Dubbo for a driving lesson if you don’t drive?”

Last year a state parliament committee into ‘Support for Rural and Regional Learner Drivers’ found that “Rural and regional learner drivers face unique barriers to obtaining a driver’s license. Barriers include inadequate access to driving programs and instructors, inadequate access to safe vehicles to learn on, and, in some circumstances, can include lower literacy and numeracy skills. In addition, not having a license can lead to reduced or no access to employment, health services, legal services training, education, and social freedom”.

The consequences of having full access to driver education are consequential, too: the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare has found rural road fatalities make up two-thirds of last year’s national road toll. While young drivers (17 – 25 years) represent one-quarter of all Australian road deaths but are

only 10 – 15 per cent of the licensed driver population Mr Birrang’s driver’s license access program is designed to get more people driving and driving safer.

“The program is funded by Transport for NSW. We visit people right through the rural and disadvantaged community programs to help people get their driver’s license. What we do is we go into Narromine, go in for a week, do a signup day and then promotions, and then deliver it later down the track.

“We do everything that is part of the licensing program; we help them with reading and writing skills, headphones so they can listen to the questions being read, lessons for anyone with L’s for anyone who requires P’s.”

He said the programs help deliver an appropriate learner driver program that caters specifically to the needs of disadvantaged people, including assistance with getting proof of identity, preparation for the driver knowledge test, increasing the accessibility of learner drivers towards the 120 hours of supervised driving experience and increasing the number of disadvantaged customers, in general, entering the driver licensing system.

They also work with people who have lost their licenses through being fi ned. “I see a lot of that in towns like Narromine, where people have their license suspended because they are not paying off their fi ne, which means they lose their job. So, driving lessons with us can help pay off a fi ne through a work development order”.

Born and bred in Narromine, Mr Birrang worked for a Holden dealership for several years before starting the Development Corporation. “I see this as a chance to give back to the community.”

freeing himself and running from officers.

A short foot pursuit followed where the man was detained following a further struggle where a constable was injured after allegedly being bitten.

The man was taken to Narromine Police Station and was assessed by NSW Ambulance paramedics.

He was transferred to Dubbo Base Hospital for treatment.

Paramedics also conveyed the police constable to Dubbo Base Hospital for treatment of injuries.

Officers attached to Orana Mid-Western Police District have commenced an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident. Inquiries are continuing.

NSW Farmers call for official review into 2022 floods

By LUKE WILLIAMS NSW Farmers wants a comprehensive, ongoing review of devastating flooding during La Nina to “prevent future threats to people, property and livelihoods.”

NSW Farmers president Xavier Martin said many people had reported unprecedented damage resulting from these floods and called for a review into floodplains and planning decisions “that may have exacerbated the problem”.

“We’re concerned that floodwater went places it hadn’t previously gone, and a lot of my members are saying they think public and private ‘flood works’ may be a contributing factor,” Mr Martin said.

Mr Martin said he was concerned future flooding not only put future productivity in doubt but that unexpected flooding “presented a real threat to lives”.

He added that “We’re seeing entire communities fi nd it difficult to get insurance, and that’s having a major impact on those people – with so much doubt and uncertainty for homes and businesses, and with such a difficult rebuilding effort still ahead of them, we would hate to see once vibrant towns collapse”.

He says NSW Farmers are calling on the government for a “comprehensive, ongoing review of public and private works so we can get to the bottom of what went on and, more importantly, understand how to prevent future flood impacts”.

He said the government needs to have accurate modeling that takes into ac-

count the cumulative impact of flood works, “but the end result we want to see is that if a proposed new levee bank or roadway or dam will flood a town or a property, it gets changed to avoid that impact”.

In response, a department of planning and environment (DPE) spokesperson told the Narromine Star: “The government made an election commitment to proactively plan and mitigate against the impacts of floods by drafting new rules and updating planning processes to stop inappropriate developments on dangerous floodplains throughout NSW.” The spokesperson said the government had created the NSW Reconstruction Authority and was “putting the safety and resilience of the community at the heart of decision-making”.

“To achieve this, the DPE and the NSW Reconstruction Authority are working on a range of programs, policy changes, and guidance to proactively plan and mitigate against the impacts of floods” through a “greater risk-based approach to flood planning to make sure floodplains can be safely enjoyed to their full social, environmental, cultural and economic potential.”

Mr Martin said the state government had a once-in-a-generation opportunity to build back better from this major, widespread disaster and set up a process that would protect people, property, and the environment and improve planning certainty into the future.

Financial distress driving increased calls to Lifeline

By LUKE WILLIAMS FINANCIAL distress is behind a jump in the number of people seeking support from phone-based counseling services in the region.

An increasing number of people are calling Lifeline because of cost-of-living stress, with Dubbo Lifeline encouraging more people to make the call.

Local team leader, Libby Williams, who lives in Narromine, said that more people are calling the group feeling distressed about how they are going to pay their bills. “ I think too there has been a rental crisis with people putting rents up, because they can, or people can’t fi nd a home in general,” Ms Willliams said.

“So, the fi nancial distress is coming from all sides, I think, in turn, this can cause a strain on relationships,” she added.

Ms Williams said the distress often extended to children.

“I think, what is happening, is that we are actually fi nding that kids are feeling the pressure from their parents.

“I mean, just in the sense that Mum and Dad are fi nding it difficult, they want to help Mum and Dad, but they are not able to.

“So, many of them are feeling like they should go without because they know Mum and Dad are having so much trouble just putting food on the table or paying for sport registration”.

Far from discouraging people calling-up, Ms Williams wants people to know that if they are feeling stressed due to their fi nancial position, they can and should ring Lifeline.

“There is no crisis too small,” she said.

Jackie Lindsay, volunteer and psychology student on the phone with Libby Williams, Dubbo Centre Manager. PHOTO: SUPPLIED. “I want people to reach-out and get support, because we know the cost of living pressure are just huge at the moment,” she added.

The group, she explains, offer far more than just a friendly voice.

We’ve got really great links and services we can send in their direction, be it food vouchers or something else.

Lifeline is not just a suicide hotline; it’s to lower distress

and provide some information as well. People often don’t ring because they think there must be someone worse off, but they can always call if they have any sort of problem or if they feel they are in distress. It doesn’t have to be so extreme that you are planning suicide”.

Lifeline Central West has been supporting individuals and communities across a huge region from the Blue Mountains to

our centers in Bathurst, Orange, and Dubbo, to Bourke and beyond for almost 50 years. 24/7 Crisis Support is available through 13 11, 14, and 13YARN for the mob. They provide assistance with Financial and GambleAware Counselling; Support through the Rapid Community Support Program (RAPID), which responds to critical incidents in our community.

As well as build awareness

and knowledge through workshops that include mental health, wellness, suicide prevention, Domestic and Family Violence.

“There is so much more going on, a lot of talk to encourage people and talk to help them fi nd solutions. It’s often not just the fi nancial problem but a whole complex set of issues around it, so hitting it helps to talk it through. Talking allows us to be more rational and just a little bit more understanding of a situation.”

Often, it’s a case of just affi rming to people how strong they are and making sure they leave the phone call feeling empowered so they can make better decisions for themselves.

“We have a care framework – connect, attend to needs, reaffirm coping strengths, and empower them on their next step,” she said.

“We are here to help people on their journey and lower their distress. Usually, we do this by highlighting their strengths and telling them they are doing great in life.”

Ms. Williams, who has a background in psychology, said she joined Lifeline to give back to the community – and is encouraging people to do the same, Lifeline is holding an induction for new volunteer counselors for a two-three hour weekly commitment following a six-week training course starting in June.

“If you’re doing ok and feel like you want to give back to the community, then joining Lifeline and becoming a counselor might be just the thing for you”.

Mayor calls for early childhood intervention to break poverty-crime cycle

By LUKE WILLIAMS

MAYOR Craig Davies wants the federal government to visit the Narromine shire to look at the relationship between poverty and crime. Mayor Davies has formally invited Dr Anne Aly, federal minister for early childhood education and minister for youth, to the Narromine shire.

“I’ve invited her to come out and talk to us at our next meeting for the Alliance for Western Councils,” he told the

Narromine Star.

“The logic behind that is so we can get early intervention with young children. The advantages in doing so in that child’s life are massive (in reducing poverty and crime).”

The Narromine mayor said he was particularly interested in how a long-term project in New Zealand called the ‘Dunedin Multidisciplinary Health and Development Study’ or the ‘Dunedin Study’ could be applied to western NSW. The Dunedin Study has been

running since the mid-1970s.

It has been regularly collecting near-comprehensive medical data on approximately 1000 people born in the 1970s, all of whom are now in their 40s.

Over 90 per cent of the original cohort is still taking part.

The research team behind it has published hundreds of scientific papers and found associations between heavy alcohol use and poor sexual health, as well as poor credit scores and cardiovascular health.

“The results are so telling in the sense that most of the child’s outcomes are based not on genetics but on social factors, and therefore, it is that area that governments need to focus on for no other reason than to break the poverty-crime cycle we see in rural and remote areas.”

“These are sort of the issues we need to focus on as a community too.”

He said he wants to see specific programs delivered here in early childhood across

western NSW “to give children some future in their lives”.

Mayor Davies said federal intervention was needed because local governments did not have the resources to implement such programs.

“The correlation between youth crime and the background of those children is frightening. It is staggering.

We have to do more to help.

We have to ask, do we have our priorities set in the right manner?”

More care for elderly residents in Narromine

By LUKE WILLIAMS ELDERLY residents in the Narromine shire have begun receiving additional support to access the care they need through the Australian government’s ‘care fi nder’ program.

Western NSW Primary Health Network (WNSW PHN) has been granted $ 3 million under the program to commission service providers that will help people understand and navigate the complex aged care system. The ‘care fi nder’ program will support people accessing My Aged Care and connect with other relevant supports in their community.

A spokesperson from WNSW PHN told the Narromine Star, “The care fi nder program was

announced in the 2021-22 federal budget as part of the Connecting Senior Australians to Aged Care Services measure for delivery through Primary Health Networks”.

“The program comes as a response to recommendations from the legislated review of Aged Care and the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, which acknowledged a greater need for face-to-face support for older people, along with additional support to access My Aged Care and generally navigate what can be a complex aged care system.”

Care finders provide specialist and intensive assistance to help older people who cannot assist themselves and do not have a carer who can sup-

port them. They assist the person to understand and access aged care, to interact with My Aged Care, and access services or other supports in the community.

WNSW PHN has commissioned the Benevolent Society to provide the ‘care fi nder’ program across the Narromine Shire.

“Around 22 per cent of the population of Narromine shire is over 65 years, and this is set to increase over the coming years. We know that older adults living alone are at greater risk of social isolation,” the spokesperson explained.

“The care fi nder program was established to address the unmet needs of older people living in our communities who are not receiving services

that they need to live comfortably and safely in their homes for longer. The care fi nder program aims to work proactively to limit crisis situations by providing early care to people who need it.”

WNSW PHN CEO, Andrew Coe, says the program is vital to ensure our vast region’s elderly residents are accessing the right care at the right place at the right time.

“Whether people are experiencing communication or language barriers, they may even be reluctant to seek support, or they may already be accessing services; our care fi nders assist people in accessing the aged care services and support they need.”

Mr Coe added, “We’re also extremely keen to hear from

friends and neighbours who have concerns about any elderly individual in our region who could be accessing care and support.”

He said that while it is envisaged that care fi nders will mainly work directly with the person in need, “they may also (where appropriate and with the person’s consent) work with the person’s carer(s), family and/or representative(s) to help the person to access the services they need”.

“The western and far west NSW regions already face challenges in accessing care and WNSW PHN continuously works to improve the health outcomes of our populations, particularly our vulnerable populations,” he said.

New flood warning system coming to Narromine

By LUKE WILLIAMS NARROMINE is to get a flood warning gauge on the bridge at Eumungerie Road under a newly announced federal government scheme.

“There is a gauge there, but it’s under the bridge and out of sight, it’s a very primitive setup,” Narromine mayor Craig Davies told the Narromine Star.

“This new set-up will be so much more accurate and recorded every hour.”

It’s part of a new national flood warning network the federal government will set up to better protect at-risk communities from natural disasters.

The federal government will spend $236 million in the next

decade to set up the network, with the commonwealth to buy and upgrade flood gauges from local, state and territory governments.

The investment comes after independent inquiries following last year’s devastating flood season, which recommended that the federal government assume responsibility for the flood gauge network, which has been previously described as patchwork.

Environment minister Tanya Plibersek said the upgrade to the network would give more accurate information on flood risks to communities as well as emergency services.

“Reliable flood warnings will help Australians prepare for moments of extreme weath-

er. It will keep people safer as they happen. And being better prepared will, when the water recedes, help reduce the financial impact of flooding on families and businesses”.

Shadow minister for emergency management, senator Perin Davey, said in a statement as she had long advocated for upgrading the flood gauge network, which will provide more accurate information on flood risks to communities and emergency services.

“The initiative to purchase and upgrade flood gauges from local, state, and territory governments will significantly improve our ability to monitor and respond to flood risks across the country,” senator Davey said.

“We heard during my questioning of the Bureau of Meteorology at [parliamentary] estimates that the current network of river gauges and flood warning infrastructure is owned by multiple state, local government and other agencies, and they don’t all talk to each other.

Senator Davey said she just hoped that the government system would be set up quickly.

The Albanese Labor government said in a statement that the systems would be set-up across the nation over the next decade.

“Communities, emergency services, and businesses need reliable access to flood forecasts and warnings to help

them prepare and respond to flooding events. This investment will improve reliability and consistency of flood data, forecasts and warnings.”

“The funding will be used to purchase and upgrade high-priority flood gauges that are currently owned by local, state, and territory governments in flood-prone areas.

In many cases, these are run down and poorly maintained.”

Mayor Davies has described the new coming gauge as “imperative”.

“It’s vital for us and vital for our community. But it’s great to know the whole state will be getting this. But certainly, it will be a massive help for us in Narromine and surrounds.”

Grant funds cancer trials at Western Cancer Centre

By LUKE WILLIAMS THERE’S a severe conundrum researchers are trying desperately to solve - and the stakes couldn’t be higher: why people in rural areas are more likely to die from cancer than their metropolitan counterparts?

The higher death rates are particularly true for deaths due to lung cancer and cancer of the head and neck. The issue is not so much higher rates of cancer diagnosis but poorer survival rates for rural residents.

Now people in the Narromine shire are being encouraged to participate in clinical trials to fi nd out why.

Macquarie University, is running the trial which has received a grant of $1.2 million from Australian cancer char-

ity Love Your Sister, to bring international standard clinical trials to regional, rural, and remote Australia.

Macquarie University is collaborating on the project with the oncology department at Dubbo Hospital, led by Dr Florian Honeyball, as well as the newly formed Western NSW Clinical Trial Support Unit and the NSW Ministry of Health.

Professor of oncology Howard Gurney, who also runs the Macquarie University Clinical Trials Unit, is leading the Oncology Trials for the Regional, Rural, and Remote Patients Collaboration (ONTRAC) Project, which will run over three years.

“People in regional, rural, and remote (RRR) Australia have considerably poorer out-

comes with most common cancers than other Australians, and this is especially true for Aboriginal people,” Professor Gurney says.

“ONTRAC aims to not only bring cutting-edge options for cancer treatment to our most vulnerable populations but also to establish fully equipped clinical trials units in regional healthcare centers and train local people in clinical-trials delivery to staff them.

“It is our hope not only to increase the number of regional, rural, remote and Aboriginal patients taking part in clinical trials, but also minimise the need for them to travel in order to participate.”

The fi rst clinical trial will begin in Dubbo in the coming months, with other areas to follow.

Love Your Sister co-founder Samuel Johnson OAM says he is “beyond excited” about the partnership with Macquarie University.

“Collectivity is the answer when equity is the aim. [I am] thrilled to be starting with Dubbo and can’t wait to roll up my sleeves during my extended visit to the region in September.”

Bundjalung Elder and Macquarie University associate professor of health sciences, Uncle Boe Rambaldini, says this project will be an important step forward.

“Cancer is the leading cause of death in Aboriginal people, overtaking cardiovascular disease, and a key barrier is access to the latest treatments and affordability,” associate professor Rambaldini says.

“This project will work with Aboriginal people in a culturally safe way to identify the barriers and create pathways to overcome them.

Macquarie University vice-chancellor (research), professor Sakkie Pretorius, said ““People living in regional, rural and remote locations will benefit tremendously, not only from having access to more clinical trials within their community, but also from the upskilling of the local workforce”.

“This impactful initiative will help patients stay closer to home and their support network rather than being required to travel long distances to receive the latest treatments.”

Political News & Opinion COULTON’S ULTON’S CATCH TCH UP Comment ment by K COULTON, MARK Federal ral Member for Parkes arkes

Volunteer Grants I WAS pleased to announce that 28 organisations in the Parkes electorate will benefit from funding to support local volunteers under the Australian Government’s 2022-23 Volunteer Grants program. A total of $66,225 in funding has been allocated across 28 volunteer groups in the Parkes electorate.

The Volunteer Grants program provides organisations with grants of between $1000 and $5000 to purchase small equipment items, contribute towards the cost of training

courses and background checks, and to help reimburse volunteers for the cost of their fuel or transport.

It was fitting that this news came during National Volunteer Week and I thank all volunteers across the Parkes electorate for their selflessness and service to our communities.

For the list of 2023 grant recipients from the Parkes electorate please read the media release on my website.

Committee work PART of my role as a federal member of parliament involves work on a number of bi-partisan parliamentary committees. These committees work across parliamentary lines to achieve positive outcomes and inform policy, such as an extensive report recently conducted into the effects of long COVID as part of the Standing Committee on Health, Aged Care and Sport.

Last week I was also in-

volved in an inquiry into co-sharing infrastructure for telecommunications as part of the Standing Committee on Communications and the Arts. This required me to attend public hearings in Adelaide, Alice Springs and Perth for community input into this national inquiry.

Shows are back IT’S been fantastic to see local shows back in full swing after some very trying years experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic. I attended the 150th Dubbo Show on the weekend, and the 118th Warialda Show the weekend before that.

I’ve had the privilege of being involved in some way with the Warialda Show all my life, and I know the importance these events have in bringing rural communities together.

Congratulations to the extremely hard-working volunteer committees and all the exhibitors and spectators for making shows across the Parkes electorate such a success.

Organiser Sarah Browning, owner of Country Traders Home and Life was blown away by the community support. “Thank you so much to absolutely everyone who helped bring this day together from baking, donating prizes, selling tickets, selling goods and the community for coming along and supporting the day” she said.

The cause is something Sarah feels very strongly about. “There isn’t someone I know that their lives haven’t been impacted by cancer in one way or another.

Classroom News

CWA Public Speaking Competition brings joy to Narromine TALES of spiders, sports, and nicknames fi lled the Narromine USMC on Tuesday, May 23, as the CWA Far Western Public Speaking Competition took place.

Around 70 students from Narromine, Trangie, Nyngan, and Warren all got up to speak on a choice of set topics.

One of the judges for the primary school section Geoff Smith told the Narromine Star he thoroughly enjoyed the day.

“They are so open and free and uninhibited,” he said. “They are just so great.”

“The judging today was certainly not easy; there were 23 in one group and 24 in another.”

He said many of the students spoke well about their subject and did well, given they had only two minutes to speak. One year three student even took on the task of telling everyone she was a redback lady spider and that while she did bite, “all the male redback spiders are very friendly once you get up close” - before reminding us not to speak to her because “spiders don’t have ears”.

Another student spent his entire speech telling us he would never reveal his sister’s nickname in public before ending it with - and “This was for my sister or ‘stinky’ as I like to call her”.

While both Mr Smith and this reporter admitted to learning at least one thing new from the primary school public speakers that a Daddy Long Legs isn’t really a spider because it has six legs, not eight.

Mr Smith said the winners were picked because they altered their pitch, spoke to the room, not just the judges, and relied less on their cue cards.

Narromine CWA member Lyn Newton who chaired the primary school event, said, “The day went really well. I thought it was excellent. For more than a third of the participants, it was their fi rst experience of doing public speaking in front of a crowd. It’s amazing to see the growth of the children over the years”.

The event run by the Far West-

ern CWA Group, is split initially between Narromine and Bourke, with winners from both days coming together to compete again in Narromine in June.

Pat Riley, also from the Narromine CWA, said the high school students were great, and it was a great chance for them to grow in confidence.

“I just thought it was amazing how they interpreted those topics. They did a remarkable job,” she said. “I just wish they had this around when I was younger.”

Mr Smith said it was important for children to begin to learn public speaking skills because, in the future, when they apply for a job, they will need to know how to speak and how to sell themselves in an interview.

“As a former employer, it’s surprising how many people cannot sell themselves in an interview, and it’s because they haven’t had the training.”

Gorillas knock-over Rhinos in top-grade senior rugby

By GINNI BROWN NARROMINE Gorillas had a strong showing over the weekend,.getting-up over the Rhinos in Dubbo in both grades of the New Holland Cup. In the Seconds, there was an eye-opening performance by Joe Heap, who made his debut in senior Gorillas Rugby playing alongside big brother, Alex.

Notable mentions in this game, also go to Sam Horton, Lincoln Boyle, and Remus Watson, who all donned the red-and-black for their fi rst games of the season. Players points for the match — in the excellent 45-28 victory — went to Justin Clarke, Nick Lyne, and Sam Horton.

The First Grade game, however, was a real nail-biter after the Gorillas made a strongstart putting 18 points on the board with tries to Tim Allworth and Euan Truscott.

An Alex Heap penalty kept them in front early on. Player numbers though, were short again, and this meant that most of the First Grade team, went in with game-time already under their belts.

Dan Barry, Nick Lyne, and Justin Clarke, therefore, all played close to two full-games.

The strain showed as the Rhino’s diligently worked their way back into the match with some yellow cards further weakening the Narromine side.

Thankfully, a Dan Barry try with two minutes to go, edged the Gorillas back in front to take the game 23-21. Player points went to Euan Trusott, Charlie Bible, and Nick Lyne.

The Gorillas next game is against Parkes in Narromine for “Sponsors Day” being held this Saturday, May 27.

Thursday, May 25, 2023 Local News for the Narromine, Trangie & Tomingley region NARROMINE STAR

Sport

Roosters and Terriers go top in Castlereagh Rugby League AFTER three rounds of the 2023 Christie and Hood Castlereagh League competition, Cobar Roosters and Gulgong Terriers are both undefeated at the top of the competition ladder.

Last weekend and playing at home, the Roosters proved too strong for the visiting Dunedoo Swans, who went into the match unbeaten.

However, the visitors travelled home 42-16 losers after the reigning premiers flexed their muscles and showed that they are fully-intent on aiming-up to make it back-to-back titles.

They will face a stiff examination this Saturday, however, when they are at home again, this time playing the Narromine Jets who registered a big win over the Baradine Magpies at Baradine, taking the game 54-18.

The fi rst-grade game at Tom Knight Oval, will be the fi nal match of the day in what will be a huge festival of football with the Roosters and the Jets clashing in both junior and senior grades.

The day’s play commences with the Under Nine’s in the morning, and fi nishes with the First-Grade game being played under lights that evening.

In other matches, it is anticipated that the Youth League game will kick-off from around 3.30pm, followed by the League Tag clash, and then, finally the big game between

the Roosters and the Jets.

A win to the visitors, would see them draw level with Cobar on the competition ladder so it is a vital game for both clubs.

Just as the Roosters have not lost a game so far this season, the Gulgong Terriers have also made an impressive start to their 2023 campaign. They maintained their unbeaten status last weekend when they downed the Coonamble Bears convincingly on the Bear’s home turf, winning 50-8 quite a statement, given the renowned doggedness of The Bears when they play at “Bearstone Park”!

In the remaining game, an opening point scoring blitz by the Binnaway Bombshells at The Crater set-up what was to be a thrilling victory by them over last year’s grand fi nalists, the Gilgandra Panthers.

The Bombshells stunned the Panthers in the opening 20 minutes, scoring at a point a minute and looking as if they were about to give the visitors a real touch-up.

However, by half-time break, the Panthers had clawed their way back into the contest with the scoreboard reading 20-16 at that point.

The second half was, to a great extent, a replica of the fi rst 40-minutes with the home-side again piling on the points, before the Panthers surged back late in the game.

In the end, though, the youth-

ful and enthusiastic Bombshells outfit was not to be denied, and they held-on for a well-deserved victory.

The loss by the Panthers leaves them without a win this season, something that they will be out to rectify when they host their arch-rivals, the Coonabarabran Unicorns, this coming Saturday!

At the same time, the Bombshells will be looking to build on their win when they play the Coonamble Bears who, similar to Gilgandra, are also searching for their fi rst victory for the season.

The Baradine Magpies can also expect few favours, when they travel down to Gulgong to mix it with the Terriers in the remaining game!

RACING NG ORT REPORT

By COLIN HODGES MAKING the most of the opportunity as a last minute replacement rider, Wendy Peel won the opening race on Saturday, May 20 at Dubbo, aboard the Clint Lundholm-trained Just An Upstart.

Well ridden by Peel, Just An Upstart ($1.50 to $1.35 favourite) settled midfield then sprinted to an over four lengths win from Luskin Vain (Chelsea Ings, $20) and Our Little Zoe (Will Stanley, $21) in the 1000 metres Dubbo RSL

Peel takes opener at Dubbo with Just An Upstart Motel Maiden Handicap.

Recently sold to clients of Dubbo-based Clint Lundholm, the three-year-old chestnut gelding Just An Upstart had five starts for Randwick trainer Mark Newnham who is leaving soon to take up a contract in Hong Kong.

Returning to Dubbo as a fully-fledged jockey earlier this year after completing her indentured time in Queensland, Wendy Peel served the bulk of her apprenticeship in NSW including a successful time with the Rodney Robb stable at Nyngan.

Feature races won by Peel for Robb, included the Warren Cotton Cup on Bells ‘N’ Bows and the Louth Cup on Austin.

A highlight in Queensland

GOLF CLUB NOTES

was winning the big prizemoney Battle Of The Bush Final at Eagle Farm on the David Reynolds, Dalby trained Rather Salubrious.

This unique race brought together the country trained winners at the small, mainly non-TAB clubs, in Queensland.

A lightweight jockey with 186 winners to her name, Wendy Peel (30) who was described

by Rodney Robb as an “ extremely hard worker “ is likely to do well from her new base in Dubbo.

Will Stanley, who gained invaluable experience riding on a variety of tracks as a jockey at picnic race meetings, is making a favourable impression in the professional ranks as an apprentice with respect-

ed Orange trainer Alison Smith, herself a former jockey.

Aboard the Smith trained four-year-old mare Brief Statement in the 1000 metres Dubbo RSL Sunset Bistro Country Boosted Class Two Handicap, Stanley gave a polished display.

Resuming from a spell, the speedy Castlebar Road (Clayton Gallagher, $5) broke clear in the straight but was overhauled in the closing strides and beaten a half neck by Brief Statement (Will Stanley, $4.20 to $3.10 favourite) with a length to the third placed Cumboogle (Serg Lisnyy, $21).

Feature race for two-yearolds at Dubbo is the Kings Hall Jewellers Silver Goblet, to be held this year at a Showcase

meeting on Friday, June 9.

Very keenly contested on Saturday was the 1100 metres Kings Hall Jewellers Silver Goblet Preview won by the Damien Lane, Wyong trained Bare To Witness in the black and pink Impact Racing colours.

At debut, the Michael Lunn, Dubbo trained Rewarding Belle, the $101 rank outsider, displayed abundant speed to lead clearly until well in the straight.

Bursting through the pack close to home, Bare To Witness (Patrick Scorse, $4.80 to $8) won by a half neck from New Pharoah (Braith Nock, $2.20 to $1.75 favourite) while Rewarding Belle (Wendy Peel,$101) held on gamely for third.

GERRIES GOLF NOTES

Major Annual Brrrr! Cold weather cause of lower no’s Open tourney to attract top field of golfers Contributed by NORM LEWIS

Contributed by NORM LEWIS NARROMINE Club is holding its Annual Open Golf Tournament on Sunday next.

This is the major competitive event on the Narromine golfi ng calendar, and is expected to attract a large field of golfers from throughout the Western Districts.

It is also expected, that the top Narromine golfers will also be seeking to mix-it with the best of the visitors with a large array of trophies on offer. Many of these, are now being displayed in the Clubhouse, courtesy of Club sponsors.

The Open is being played over 27 holes of Strokeplay, and will hit off at 9am with entries being accepted from 8am on.

Thanks to the volunteer brigade who work tirelessly on the Course, everything is in tiptop condition for the big event.

In other news, it is no doubt that the cool weather last weekend affected the roll-up with, on Saturday, only nine players attending for the Macquarie Clothing Monthly Medal event. Medal winners were, in A-Grade, Steve Gillette with a nett 71 and, in B-Grade, Bruce Mitchell with a nett 71.

The overall daily comp saw a win for Kath Williams on nett 68 from Bruce Mitchell on 71.The Nearest-the-Pin on the ninth went to Rob Gainsford, while Rob Williams won the Long Drive on the fi rst. Kath Williams completed a double for the day, also taking the jackpot on the ninth hole.

Sunday saw a better field of 21 players in the Four-Ball Aggregate Stableford, which was also Round Three of the Shootout event.

Popular winners on the day, were Kale and Lenae Bock with a score of 77; runners-up were Tony Harding and Matt Brown with 75.

Nearest-the-pin on the third hole was not won with Tony Mann taking the prize on the 10th.The Jackpot prize on the third hole was not won, however, “Boy George” won the long-drive on the 10th.

The event next Saturday, is a Two-Person Ambrose and, as previously mentioned, the Open is on the Sunday, with the Junior Clinic also on Sunday morning from 9am.

In Veterans Golf, the “Vets” played their monthly nine-hole competition on the back nine, in conjunction with the Medal Round.

The winner was Ashley Bullock with a nett 34!/2, with second place going to Rob Williams on 35.

The next Veteran Open, is on Wednesday June 7, at Coonamble.

That’s all for this week — see you all at the Open on Sunday!

GERRIES Golf Competition on Wednesday, played on the back nine, had a disappointing field of only six players. No doubt, the cool change in the weather, had a lot to do with the reduced numbers and the scores returned.

Winner on the day was Ron Green with a score of 21 points with Brian Masling, returning a card of 19 points, claimed second place. The NAGA Prize resulted in a tie between Ross King and Mal Fraser on 16 points. The count-back was used to decide the result, which went to Ross King. There was again no winner of the Nearest-the-Pin prize.

All players were pleased to reach the comfort and warmth of the Club House for the presentations and

the Pool Comp.

Only one match of Pool was played, and this saw Bob Fletcher and Terry Willis play Ross King and Greg Kearines. Unfortunately for Bob, his winning run over the past weeks, came to an end with Ross and Greg claiming the title of “Pool Champs for the Week”.

The weekly game on Wednesday, will have been played by the publication of this week’s column, with the results will be in next week’s edition.

Players are asked to note that, the competition scheduled for Wednesday, May 31, will hit-off at 2.30pm. Note also that all of our events will continue at this time, for the remainder of Winter.

That’s about all for this week — see you all at the 19th!

BOWLS COLUMN

“Plan B” in Major/Minor Pairs, with semi-finals on this week FOR those who read last week’s column, it ended-up being “Plan B” in the Major/Minor Pairs competition that graced the greens last Saturday.

This meant there was only the catch-up game of Mark Hilder and Henry Buttsworth versus Kevin Rider and James Coen. After 20ends, however, Mark and Henry had established an unassailable 20-11 lead, and the boys declared time on the match.

So this means that, next weekend we have both of the semi-fi nals in action with Racardo Stanford and Kane Adams, taking-on Robbie Stanford and Dwayne Faro in Game One on Saturday afternoon from 1.30pm; with Mark Hilder and Henry Buttsworth, tackling Ben Clark and Richard Hyde in Game Two, also form 1.30pm.

No doubt there will be plenty of support for all four teams so, if you plan on watching either fi xture it

would be best to have your seat inplace, early.

In other news, the “Gub Thorne Day”, has been set down for Saturday, August 19 and, again, the Nomination Sheet can be found on the Club’s Noticeboard with all the relevant conditions-of-play, costs, and more.

Narromine Bowling Club also hosted a group of travelling bowlers from the ACT last Thursday, and it was great to see some 48 bowlers on the greens with eight rinks of Triples being played.

The Canberrans mixed-in or played against the locals in a number of matches. Ultimate winners on the day, were Narromine lass, Carol Carnevale, who teamedup with visitors Kevin Deeve and Leane Birch, to claim the major prize-pool.

In second spot, was a local team (of sorts), namely Scott Lincoln (Dubbo) Bob Christof (Trangie) and

Bill Wilkie (a Narromine stalwart).

Sunday’s “Chook Run” attracted some 10 soldiers with Ross Wallace and Danny Carnevale declared the day’s best.

Our Ladies also hosted a successful “Sungai Day” on Tuesday with some seven visiting teams joining-in with our local girls for what was a great event, according to my spy.

Our next Trivia Night has been set down for Tuesday, May 30, with all proceeds going towards the local pre-school.

Hopefully, Emcee “Kevie” is raring to go, after a bout of the dreaded “lurgy” slowed him down for a few days this week.

Well that’s it for me this week, not too-sure what’s happening with the Dragons at the moment but, not getting my hopes up too-much, it makes the footy tipping contest, all that bit trickier!

LADIES GOLF REPORT

Ladies Monthly Medal won by Betty Berryman LAST Wednesday, Narromine Ladies Golf, played the second round of the Monthly Medal.
